Parks, Recreation & Cultural Affairs

Need a special summer activity for kids ages 7 -12? Register them by June 25 for Wildlife Wednesdays, a five-week series of outdoor activities and hikes (from July 2 - 30). Each week’s session is different, as we learn about bugs, birds, trails, the water creatures in the Animas River, plants, and more. $20 per person, snack included. Registration required at the Riverside Nature Center, or the Farmington Museum.

Preschool children and their families bring lunch and meet at the Riverside Nature Center in Animas Park for a picnic, followed by a story or activity and a stroller-friendly walk in the park. Learn about plants, insects, birds, and all the interesting wildlife. Feed the friendly ducks, and go home in time for naps. This program continues every week throughout the spring and summer.

Held at the Farmington Museum at Gateway Park, this annual show attracts fine artists across the country. The show will feature approximately 100 works of art by artists from across the country. Entries vary from multimedia pieces, pottery, paintings, and photography.
